The text pdf's are also of two types - the ones that reflow (well) and the ones that do not. Yours seem to be of the second type so if the text in the original is too small, you have to use horizontal half-page to read them nicely, preserving the layout.
I have no idea if/how you can convert a text pdf that does not reflow into one that does, but I will look into it since I started liking using pdf's on the 700 since they have a nicer layout than even the lrf files.
Text pdf's can and do have embedded images. An image pdf is all made of images - scans are the best example - and you cannot extract the text unless you OCR it.
I made my first pdf out of a Ms_doc using open_office_org and it reflows great as well as being nicer than the lrf I made with Calibre, and faster than the epub I made with Calibre, though the epub is smaller.
